Scarborough defends CNN against Trump: CNN 'has more integrity'

MSNBC host Joe Scarborough pushed back at the Trump administration on Tuesday for attacking CNN and other news organizations as "fake news," blasting the president for having less integrity than news outlets.

The "Morning Joe" host defended CNN employees on Twitter, saying they "have every reason to take great pride in their work."

The issue was also brought up during Tuesday's White House press conference, during which deputy press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders clashed with a Playboy contributor over CNN's retraction and the topic of "fake news."

Trump and media have clashed frequently following his election. He has most often found himself in heated exchanges with CNN, The New York Times and The Washington Post.
